Living a life kept shut by a dream I'm reaching out to grasp my reality Hands of time wrap tight around my neck And hit me so hard Leaving me eyes black Staring at a ceiling Wondering why I never left Penning words in a notebook Wondering why haven't slept Sanity is tapping in a cell Inside my f**king head Begging for redemption After hearing what was said The nights, they will not sleep 'Cause the days, have played for keeps
